When Jesus was baptized, the sins of the world were transferred to Him. Jesus was sinless, but because He bore all the sins of the world through baptism, He had to die on the Cross. And by rising from death, He gave new life to those who believe in this beautiful gospel.

Since we are born with sin as descendants of Adam, we must acknowledge that we are fundamentally sinners destined for hell, even if we do not commit sins through our actions. And we must have all the sins of our hearts removed through faith in the fact that Jesus, who is God, personally received baptism from John in the flesh, took upon Himself all the sins of the world, died on the cross as the price for our sins, and resurrected from the dead.

We must accurately understand what the Bible says about heresy so that we do not follow their example, and instead turn back to believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit accomplished by the Lord, to be born again as sinless children of God.

Jesus redeemed us from all sins—past, present, future—by bearing them through His baptism and being judged for them on the Cross.

Through Jesus Christ’s redemption of water, blood, and the Spirit, we who believe have been made into those who overcome the world and Satan
